I am building Europe’s first women’s centred healthcare fund with a mission to invest in solutions that affect women solely , disproportionately and differently. I am keen to speak about the inherent bias’ and discrepancies that exist in our healthcare systems and what we need to do as a collective to achieve healthcare parity especially for women of colour.

We are a female founded venture capital firm building Europe’s first women’s centered healthcare fund. The fund will invest at growth seed in technology driven companies innovating in women’s health, wellness and femtech. Hard wired into the fund’s investment thesis, GGV’s investments will be aligned with (1) creating a sustainable, healthy planet and society (2) achieving healthcare parity, and (3) investing in under-represented founders.

I am an avid angel investor having invested into more than 15 early-stage women’s health start-ups and several fintech companies.
